Nitrous gauge Question?!!?
The pressure shouldn't get that high when filling the bottle unless the mother bottle is almost empty and they are just pumping away to get it filled. Then is might heat the bottle up to those pressures.

look at the diagram below.. at no point will increasing pressure turn any liquid to a gas ...

the dotted green line is the funky solid to fluid line of water.. without wich you wouldnt be able to skate (melting the ice by applying pressure and skating on a film of water)
